How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A charming screwball comedy that lovingly satirizes both Old Hollywood's B-Western machine and the gap between romanticized dreams and messy reality. It's a gentle, funny ride through Depression-era dreams and showbiz mishaps.
